Happiness

Happiness does not come from doing easy work but from the afterglow of satisfaction that comes after the achievement of a difficult task that demanded our best.
- Rubin, Theodore I.
Happiness Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Happiness

1.
The thing that counts most in the pursuit of happiness is choosing the right companion.

2.
Sir, that all who are happy, are equally happy, is not true. A peasant and a philosopher may be equally satisfied, but not equally happy. Happiness consists in the multiplicity of agreeable consciousness.
Johnson, Samuel

3.
Act happy, feel happy, be happy, without a reason in the world. Then you can love, and do what you will.
Millman, Dan

4.
Not what you have, but what you see; Not what you see, but what you choose; Not what seems fair, but what is true; Not what you dream, but what you do; Not what you take, but what you give; Not as you pray, but as you live. These are the things that mar or bless The sum of human happiness.

5.
Personal happiness lies in knowing that life is not a checklist of acquisition or achievement. Your qualifications are not your life.
J.K. Rowling

6.
Happiness is not a state to arrive at, rather, a manner of traveling.
Johnson, Samuel

7.
It is the greatest happiness of the greatest number that is the measure of right and wrong.
Bentham, Jeremy

8.
The man who is born with a talent which he was meant to use finds his greatest happiness in using it.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

9.
Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.
Dalai Lama

10.
Happiness is like those palaces in fairy tales whose gates are guarded by dragons: we must fight in order to conquer it.
Dumas, Alexandre

11.
Let no man be called happy before his death. Till then, he is not happy, only lucky.
Solon

12.
If you want happiness for an hour -- take a nap. If you want happiness for a day -- go fishing. If you want happiness for a month -- get married. If you want happiness for a year -- inherit a fortune. If you want happiness for a lifetime -- help someone else.
Proverb, Chinese

13.
Now and then it's good to pause in our pursuit of happiness and just be happy.
Apollinaire, Guillaume

14.
Cherish all your happy moments: they make a fine cushion for old age.
Christopher Morley

15.
Happiness comes from... some curious adjustment to life.
Walpole, Sir Hugh

16.
It is not how much we have, but how much we enjoy, that makes happiness.
Spurgeon, Charles Haddon

17.
Happiness is a by-product. You cannot pursue it by itself.
Levenson, Samuel

18.
Happiness is a how, not a what: a talent, not an object
Hesse, Hermann

19.
The happier the moment the shorter.
Pliny The Elder

20.
They say a person needs just three things to be truly happy in this world. Someone to love, something to do, and something to hope for.
Chalmers, Allan K.

21.
There is no happiness; there are only moments of happiness.
Proverb, Spanish

22.
Look up, laugh loud, talk big, keep the color in your cheek and the fire in your eye, adorn your person, maintain your health, your beauty and your animal spirits.
Hazlitt, William

23.
If frugality were established in the state, and if our expenses were laid out to meet needs rather than superfluities of life, there might be fewer wants, and even fewer pleasures, but infinitely more happiness.
Goldsmith, Oliver

24.
It is wrong to assume that men of immense wealth are always happy.
Rockefeller, John D.

25.
Happiness is the act of being tough with ourselves and tender with others.

26.
We are never so happy nor so unhappy as we imagine.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

27.
Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. It is far better take things as they come along with patience and equanimity.
Jung, Carl

28.
If happiness is activity in accordance with excellence, it is reasonable that it should be in accordance with the highest excellence.
Aristotle

29.
The great end of all human industry is the attainment of happiness. For this were arts invented, sciences cultivated, laws ordained, and societies modeled, by the most profound wisdom of patriots and legislators. Even the lonely savage, who lies exposed to the inclemency of the elements and the fury of wild beasts, forgets not, for a moment, this grand object of his being.
Hume, David

30.
Joy comes from using your potential.
Schultz, Will

31.
Happiness is a by product of an effort to make someone else happy.
Palmer, Gretta Brooker

32.
Happiness is like a sunbeam, which the least shadow intercepts, while adversity is often as the rain of spring.
Proverb, Chinese

33.
The good life, as I conceive it, is a happy life. I do not mean that if you are good you will be happy; I mean that if you are happy you will be good.
Russell, Bertrand

34.
There's a hope for every woe, and a balm for every pain, but the first joys of our heart come never back again!
Gilfillan, Robert

35.
Happiness is like manna; it is to be gathered in grains, and enjoyed every day. It will not keep; it cannot be accumulated; nor have we got to go out of ourselves or into remote places to gather it, since it has rained down from a Heaven, at our very door
Edwards, Tryon

36.
If we cannot live so as to be happy, let us least live so as to deserve it.
Immanuel Hermann Fichte

37.
Do you want my one-word secret of happiness -- It's growth -- mental, financial, you name it.
Geneen, Harold S.

38.
There is no greater joy than that of feeling oneself a creator. The triumph of life is expressed by creation.
Bergson, Henri L.

39.
IÆve decided that the key to happiness is low expectations.
Laura Moncur

40.
To be happy is not the purpose of our being rather it is to deserve happiness.
Fichte, Johann G.

41.
If thou wilt make a man happy, add not unto his riches but take away from his desires.
Epicurus

42.
We are no longer happy as soon as we wish to be happier.
Landor, Walter Savage

43.
Never believe straight off in a man's unhappiness. Ask him if he can still sleep. If the answer's yes, all's well. That is enough.
Celine, Louis-Ferdinand

44.
Knowledge of what is possible is the beginning of happiness.
Santayana, George

45.
Even if happiness forgets you a little bit, never completely forget about it.
Prevert, Jacques

46.
Life at its noblest leaves mere happiness far behind; and indeed cannot endure it. Happiness is not the object of life: life has no object: it is an end in itself; and courage consists in the readiness to sacrifice happiness for an intenser quality of life.
Shaw, George Bernard

47.
Very little is needed to make a happy life.
Marcus Aurelius Antoninus

48.
Whoever is happy will make others happy too.
Frank, Anne

49.
The discovery of a new dish does more for human happiness than the discovery of a new star.
Anthelme Brillat-Savarin

50.
Happiness radiates like the fragrance from a flower, and draws all good things toward you. Allow your love to nourish yourself as well as others. Do not strain after the needs of life. It is sufficient to be quietly alert and aware of them. In this way life proceeds more naturally and effortlessly. Life is here to Enjoy!
Yogi, Maharishi Mahesh
